So.... I am not alone in my greed then?

I NEVER buy myself sweets or chocolates, but if someone buys them for me.... well it would be SORUDE not to eat them.
Don't you agree?
Good night folks, have a good evening, and sleep well.

I don't like chocolate much.There is a big box of little bars of chocolate that we keep to bribe the carers (it ensures warm hands).

It doesn't call to me at all.

Unfortunately the old man likes wine gums and so do I.Walking past his box of wine gums is one of the hardest parts of being his carer! I don't think it can be done.

Merlin, I am sooooo not a chocoholic, usually! A few months ago, I was ordered to eat chocolate, as much as I could manage... I would eat a square a day... under protest, and like it was medicine (it was, in a way... I needed potassium) and my hubby would stand over me to make sure I ate it.... it tasted like poison, lolol

Sharron... it rarely calls to me, either.... I am a savoury lover usually.

Hi Deanna.... I rarely get chocolates as gifts... I eat the very occasional one, but am not usually so greedy with it.. after a Quality st or two, I have had enough... but not today!

Annina.... I don't often eat bikkies, either, strange woman that I am... Jaffa cakes or bourbons, very occasionally... not much into cake, either... love Malt loaf once in a while.... but rarely chocolate!

Wmsl at Rose and BC......!!

Lol Ann... I know, I know!! It just came over me in a wave... R has those little mini things, takes one into work every day in his lunch box... I ate 3 bags of buttons, 3 of maltezers, two twirls... and then opened the other bag cos I just had to have a little snickers... ate three of those... then R brought me a big steaming mug of Belgian drinking chocolate... I polished that off, too.... then went to bed for a couple of hours.....

Back on track now.... just passed the bags, and they didn't say a word to me... not even a reproachful glance my way!!

Love

Daff xxxxx

Maybe your body was telling you what it needed.

Pure greediness, Ann, lol... my mineral levels are all fine, it would seem.... I had all the bloods done on Friday.... does chocolate help you sleep? Now that might be why, if it has a sedative effect! I hadn't thought of that!

Must go and google!

Love

Lol Ann... yep, just googled it!! No wonder I slept for hours this afternoon! Isn't the body a wonderful thing?

Well.... definitely off to bed now..... hopefully, I'll sleep, even though I haven't eaten any more chocolate... and I am forsaking the alcohol for a few weeks!

Love

Daff xxxxx
